synopsis: """Alternative String module for OCaml"""
20
+
Astring exposes an alternative `String` module for OCaml. This module
21
+
tries to balance minimality and expressiveness for basic, index-free,
22
+
string processing and provides types and functions for substrings,
23
+
string sets and string maps.
25
+
Remaining compatible with the OCaml `String` module is a non-goal. The
26
+
`String` module exposed by Astring has exception safe functions,
27
+
removes deprecated and rarely used functions, alters some signatures
28
+
and names, adds a few missing functions and fully exploits OCaml's
29
+
newfound string immutability.
31
+
Astring depends only on the OCaml standard library. It is distributed
32
+
under the ISC license.
